1. Install an advanced contact form extension on Joomla: Search and download an advanced contact form extension from the Joomla Extension Directory or a third-party vendor. Once downloaded, go to the Joomla administrator dashboard, and go to “Extensions” > “Install” and follow the prompts to install the extension.
1. Configure the extension settings: After installing the extension, go to the extension settings, and configure the contact form parameters as per your requirements. Set up the fields that you need, email addresses, and other related settings to receive inquiries or messages from site visitors.
1. Build your advanced contact form: Go to the extension settings and start building your contact form using the built-in form builder. Add fields, set required fields, use custom CSS, and build conditional fields if required.
1. Apply form layout and design styles: If your advanced contact form extension allows customization, apply attractive design elements to make your contact form visually appealing. Set form width and height, add logos, configure field sizes, and apply background colors.
1. Test the advanced contact form: Before publishing your advanced contact form, test it to ensure it’s functioning correctly. Verify that emails are being sent to the designated recipient(s), and that validation is properly working on all fields and form submission is successful.
1. Publish the advanced contact form: Once you’re sure that the advanced contact form is functioning correctly, publish the form on the desired page on your website using the extension’s shortcode or template module positions.
1. Monitor and track submitted forms: Set up notifications so that you are alerted every time a contact form is submitted. Review submitted forms periodically to promptly get in touch with your visitors, optimize the form based on visitor feedback, and tweak the automation settings to reduce spam in real-time.
